im most likely going to be getting a compression test done to my car this weekend to make sure that it will be able to handle boost so i can continue with my plans of turboing my car and i was wondering what compression readings should i get

I have heard that around 180 180 180 180 is perfect for a warm engine... if it's cold take about 20 off that.... but i could be wrong... mine got 150 150 150 150 cold... but that was on a brand new engine and the rings haven't seated yet. I will probably be doing a compression check later this week myself
